It can be both. Evelyn Waugh was an English novelist, and he was married to a woman named Evelyn, which I assume was confusing.

The Phillies winning a WS does seem to coincide with economic turmoil.

1980 - Recession

2008 - Financial crisis

2022 - Bidenflation (if they win)

“ It’s enough that we have to deal with white supremacy. We shouldn’t have to deal with it with people of color because they all classify us together -- we all supposed to be together with this… what is this?”

Haha. Classic. Relative to history and to the rest of the modern world, whites—especially American whites— are the most racially tolerant people. And that’s often to their detriment when discussing pure survival.

Non-white people are still far more tribal and supremacist, but yeah, keep thinking there’s this “people of color” solidarity.

I try to guard against this mindset of seeing myself as an elect or chosen. It’s a conceit that I don’t like, and I think it is healthy to keep perspective by reminding myself that everyone can be someone else’s “normie.” Nothing is certain, and I may have reached conclusions that another person would see as nonsense, and there is a distinct possibility that person would be right.

Agreed. You can only rope-a-dope so much before you eventually are the dope.

I agree they are not real men. They are either empty, like Biden who I liken to a scarecrow or one of TS Eliot’s Hollow Men, or they are hosts for demons.

And modeling contracts, unless people think that Kamala Harris’s ant-bodied step daughter is the next Elle Macpherson.

The truth is simple, clean, and direct.

No torturing of the language. No inverted meaning. No invented pronouns.

Refreshing like a drink of water after being in the desert.

I hate the cliché “two weeks” comment, but they make it so appropriate.

One of the brilliant comments:

Pro lifers don't seem to all be vegan... of course, even if they were they'd be eating plants which are also alive. They use soap to kill germs and disinfectant sprays. I bet most are fine with pesticides. Many of them enjoy hunting and fishing. It's never, ever been about life.

There’s no reconciling with this evil. Depart from them and shake the dust off your feet.

You’re suggesting that the people who specialize in playing pretend to make money played pretend to make money?

Yeah, but how do they know they are interviewing female coaches? They’re not biologists.
